Hello,
I am new to DP8 and I'm trying to get editing working using a Euphonix / Avid MC Transport control surface.
The problem I'm having is that scrubbing is very "laggy" - I turn the (physical) scrub wheel and nothing happens for ~ 1 second and then scrubbing starts in DP8. When I stop moving the wheel the scrubbing continues in DP8 for 1 - 2 seconds.
The scrub speed also seems fairly erratic - it's basically useless for scrubbing to find an edit point.
However scrubbing works OK with the scrub tool and a mouse.
Is there some setup that needs a tweak - or is this just how it is?
Any advice gratefully received.
Thanks,
Paul.

Re: Euphonix / Avid MC Transport DP8 scrub problem.
Bad news my friend. Since Euphonix fell into the hands of AVID things were no so good for Logic, DP... non-protools-users.
I've got a better performance with my cheap shuttleXpress jog than with more expensive MCControl jog... For the time being I only use the MCControl touchscreen for DP shortcuts

Re: Euphonix / Avid MC Transport DP8 scrub problem.
I use my Euphonix MC Control scrub wheel all the time. I have no slow response problems. Could it be that you have something weird in EuControl Settings/General? I have my wheel sensitivity at the default center position and Global selected. Otherwise check your Motu Harwdare setup / studio setup settings. I run at 1024 with two interfaces and don`t have your problem.
